Ski or ride this weekend, your choice

Colorado Springs's trails are almost completely clear of snow and ice. A Gazette photographer rode the Buckhorn/Captain Jack's loop in Cheyenne Canon on his bike yesterday and said the whole thing is clear. It will be in the 60s and sunny this weekend, perfect for riding. Meanwhile, the mountains are getting a hefty dose of snow. Copper reports 8 inches. Breck reports five. Monarch reports 11. It's one of those rare weekends when whatever you decide to do, you can't go wrong.
